It took Tago several seconds to react. He jumped up from Bai Luo's arms, his eyes wide with shock.
How could a catgirl who's barely 1.4 meters tall possibly become a virtuous wife and loving mother? She couldn't even raise a baby! And what's with this bride training nonsense? If I'm not mistaken, the "teacher" Bai Luo mentioned is actually the captain!
"How come I didn't know you were going to become the captain's wife?"
Tagore was deeply shocked and grabbed two fried dumplings, throwing them into his mouth to calm his nerves.
Bai Luo's cheeks were flushed as she played with her smooth white cat tail and said, "My teacher once promised me that we would retire together and go home to enjoy our old age."
"Ah! Isn't this what they mean by making you his wife?!"
Tego's eyes widened: "How come none of us knew about this?"
“Because this is a secret between me and my teacher,” Bai Luo said confidently.
Only one person in the entire Great Mystery Continent knows the truth about this matter.
A scene titled "And you are my true hero".
On a park bench as the sun sets, facing his swordsmanship student, the white cat swordsman Bai Luo reveals his true feelings. Someone then clicks on option A:
"Retiring and enjoying retirement with my beloved students isn't such a bad idea..."
Before the voiceover finished playing, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck down in the night sky outside the window.
Everything went dark.
After someone fixed the machine and logged back into the game, they found that this part of the story had ended.
The original second half of the sentence, "But this can only be done after reaching the top of the World Tree and defeating the Demon King," has been lost forever.
This resulted in Bai Luo only hearing the first half of his agreement.
"Could you try these dishes for the teacher first and see how they taste?"
Bai Luo spoke gently, serving Taige a bowl of rice. She wiped Taige's greasy fingers from handling the fried dumplings with a napkin, then placed the chopsticks in his hand, saying:
"You haven't forgotten how to use it, have you? If not, we also have knives and forks."
"Waaaaah, I want a wife like Lord Bai Luo too! No! I not only want to be close to Lord Bai Luo, I also want to be inside him!"
Having endured hardship and deprivation, Tagore had never received such care, especially from a petite and beautiful silver-haired catgirl. He was so moved that tears streamed down his face.
But this joke made Bai Luo's face darken, and she pinched Taige's ear in annoyance: "If you dare to do that, I won't let you off! I am the teacher's future wife, and my body already belongs to the teacher."
"Waaaaah, Bai Luo, who is so loyal to the captain, is so cute. No wonder he wasn't kicked out. Even a useless tiger like me, who is a five-star character, still received a contract to leave the team."
"This is the teacher's gentle side; he doesn't want you to sacrifice yourselves in the World Tree."
Bai Luo was a little angry and earnestly explained to someone.
"By the way—speaking of the captain, I have something to show you."
Tiger wolfed down the food on the table, his hands rummaging in his pockets, pulling out half a piece of raw meat that he hadn't finished, a string of large green grasshoppers, a handful of earthworms, and mixed in a round, crystal-clear recording stone.
"Is this all you usually eat?"
"Yes, yes, the food made by Lord Bai Luo is so delicious."
"I feel like asking you to taste the food is pointless."
Bai Luo put one hand on his hip and held the recording stone in the other: "Is this what you're supposed to show me?"
"That's right, as expected of Lord Bai Luo!"
"I've retired from adventurer life. Your strength will surpass mine in the future, so don't use the old title anymore."
Bai Luo shook her little head, seemingly extremely resistant to that title.
That "Lord Bai Luo," who blindly imitated her teacher, always had a stern face, was rude to everyone, and liked to persuade others with a sword, was a thing of the past. She didn't want to recall that dark history anymore.
"Take a look quickly."
Urged on by Tagore, Bai Luo reluctantly turned on the recording stone.
With her current mature adult mindset, there aren't many things that can interest her anymore.
But it's best to cooperate with Tagore and act slightly surprised.
After all, Tagore was one of her few friends, and since he was visiting as a guest today, she had to give him face.
Bai Luo infused a wisp of magic into the recording stone, and an illusory light screen immediately appeared.
The background is a dark forest, and the viewpoint is aimed at the night sky diagonally in front.
"Mondel Tree, Cuckoo Grass, a very typical tenth-level Mythic+ dungeon landscape."
Bai Luo may be young, but his insight is extremely accurate. With just a glance, he knew that the recording came from the tenth floor.
She didn't find anything that interested her in it.
Should we praise the tree for being beautiful, or the night sky for being gorgeous?
Tagore has changed too, from a tiger-man warrior who only liked to eat and was brave and fierce, into a mature adult who can appreciate the night sky and the forest.
Being a mature adult is very important to Bai Luo.
Standing at less than 1.4 meters tall, she must excel in other areas and be more mature than the average person in order to become a qualified wife.
Otherwise, she would definitely be ridiculed by the adventurers, who would say that she was just a child and not worthy of being a teacher.
"Sigh, let's look at the night sky in the video to cheer ourselves up."
Just as Bai Luo was thinking this, a sword light burning with black flames and hundreds of meters high appeared out of thin air.
That kind of power, even through the virtual screen, makes people tremble, as if they are only one step away from death.
The sword light engulfed a large area of forest, as if it were about to tear space apart.
Bai Luo froze, the cat's tail resting quietly on the sofa, its purplish-red pupils reflecting the black flames of the sword.
